AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the claim of an Eastern European scientist, possibly Czech, who allegedly created an electromagnetic anti-gravity field, as seen on the Discovery Channel. Participants express skepticism about the validity of such claims, suggesting that they may stem from unreliable sources. The name Podkletnov is mentioned as a potential candidate for the scientist in question, with references to his work and others who attempted to replicate it. Critics label the theories surrounding anti-gravity as fringe or crackpot ideas. Overall, the conversation highlights the challenges of validating extraordinary scientific claims.

Ok, I know I'm not losing my mind. But I am in a discussion with other people in another forum. My theories are a little whacked compared to the norm. I know I saw the discovery channel and an eastern european scientist (i think czech) created some electromagnetic anti-gravity field or electrostatic antigravity field. No one has ever been able to recreate this as far as I know. Does ANYONE know the name of the scientist who was able to create this area of antigravity! So many people are going off on me saying it's impossible...i know i didn't dream this.

You may not be losing your mind as much as you're putting too much faith into the Discovery Channel.

Not sure, but there was once this guy name Hutchinson that claimed something along those lines. He was Canadian though.

Personally I think it is a crackpot theory.

Take your science from the discovery channel with the same grain of salt that you would take with getting your news from the tabloids.
 
I hope it is not the Podkletnov effect, because that would put a quick end to this thread.

Most likely Podkletnov, and his 'experiments' were 'replicated' by Ning Li and Doug Torr.
 
Here's a professor who claims to have some data on mass fluctuations. Not sure if this is what your are looking for, but here's the link:
